Simple, Free Classroom Implementation

Step 1

We Create Your Group

Easy Peasy Finance creates a group (like a dedicated classroom) for you, with you as the group leader. The courses are pre-assigned to your group.

Step 2

Enroll Students

On your group management dashboard, use a simple web form to invite your students to the group. The students would receive an email with login information for EasyPeasyFinance.com, and would be auto-enrolled in the courses.

Step 3

Start the Course(s)

Your students can start the course(s), and you can easily monitor their progress from the group management dashboard (please see more details below).

Teacher Monitoring Tools

01 Teacher Group Leader Dashboard v2

Group Management Report

The Group Management report functions like a Teacher Dashboard, giving you a clear and organized overview of everything happening within your group.

It shows you which course or courses are assigned to the group, and lists the names and email addresses of all the students who are enrolled.

In addition, it provides valuable insight into each studentโ€™s overall status in the course(s) – whether theyโ€™ve completed, started, or not yet started the material.

This makes it easy to track engagement, identify who might need extra support, and manage your group efficiently from one central place.

Group Course Report

The Course Report offers a detailed snapshot of a specific course, giving you clear insights into how students are engaging with the content.

It includes a list of all the students enrolled in that particular course, along with their names and email addresses for easy identification and communication.

More importantly, the report highlights each studentโ€™s percentage course completion, allowing you to quickly see who is making steady progress, who may be falling behind, and who has successfully completed the course. This information is especially helpful for monitoring learning outcomes, providing targeted support, and ensuring students stay on track.

02 Course Report v2
03 Quiz Report v2

Course Quiz Report

The Quiz Report gives you a focused snapshot of a specific quiz, helping you monitor student performance at a glance.

It lists all the students who are eligible to take the quiz, along with their names and email addresses for easy reference and follow-up.

For each student, the report shows their overall quiz score, allowing you to assess how well they understood the material. It also includes the date they completed the quiz, which helps you track timeliness and identify any delays.

Additionally, the report provides a link to the detailed quiz grading, where you can review each studentโ€™s responses, see which questions were answered correctly or incorrectly, and better understand where they may need additional support or clarification.

Student Progress Report

The Progress Report is centered on a single student, giving you a detailed snapshot of that student’s learning journey.

It provides a comprehensive view of their overall progress across all the courses theyโ€™re enrolled in, including the percentage of completion for each course.

Beyond just the high-level overview, the report breaks down each course into its individual modules or units, showing the completion status of each one. This allows you to see exactly how far the student has progressed within a course, which modules have been completed, and where they may be stuck or falling behind.

This individualized report is especially useful for tracking student engagement, offering personalized support, and celebrating milestones in their learning path.
